An Update on Adilyn

Adilyn is growing up before our eyes! She is such an amazing kid. I am not a bragging parent because I really don't care about a lot of the outside stuff, but this is her first year with "real" grades and she has had all A's all year. She has a really sweet little best friend, Audrey. Her teachers all say that she is very helpful, very sweet, and a great student. She has a very quirky sense of humor, and she loves to laugh. One of her favorite things to do still is dance around the house and "do shows." She still fights with Kacy and now her and Brooke can get into some fights, too, but she is a great big sister. I often catch her reading to Brooke, or helping her reach something that she can't get on her own. Speaking of reading, she loves to read! I finally got her to start actually finishing books. She would start and stop books all the time, but I think she is finishing them now. Her favorite series is called Whatever After - they are fractured fairy tales of original princess stories. I don't care what it is, as long as she is reading! She likes to stay up at night and read, sometimes too late, but I have come to find out that she does not need that much sleep. I mean, she isn't up until midnight, but she can stay up later than the other girls and still be fine. :) She seems to be excited about volleyball this, and I would love to see her get a little determined this year.
Sometimes when I look at her, I just can't even believe how big she is getting - almost 8! How is it possible? I am so proud of who she is becoming, and I can't wait to see how she continues to grow as a wonderful little lady :) Love her to pieces!
